Answer:
x=18 and y=9
Step-by-step explanation:
let the two natural no.s be= x and y
x=2y---------(1)
x^3-y^3=5103
now substituting (1)
(2y)^3-y^3=5103
8y^3-y^3=5103
7y^3=5103
y^3=729
y=9
therefore x=2y
=2 x 9
=18

Answer:-
Let one of the numbers be a.
Given:
The second number is twice the first.
→ second number = 2(a) = 2a.
And,
Difference of their cubes is 5103.
→ (2a)³ - a³ = 5103
→ 8a³ - a³ = 5103
→ 7a³ = 5103
→ a³ = 5103/7
→ a³ = 729
→ a³ = 9³
Powers are equal , hence the bases are also equal.
→ a = 9
→ First number (a) = 9
→ second number (2a) = 9*2 = 18.
Verification:-
Given that, the difference of their cubes is 5103.
Hence,
(18)³ - (9)³ = 5103
→ 5832 - 729 = 5103
→ 5103 = 5103
→ LHS = RHS
Hence, Verified.
